The choir is the latest to be launched by founder Katie Ashby, creator and lead singer of The D-Day Darlings, semi-finalists on ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent.
The choir meet every week at Sutton Coldfield Town Hall, bringing together a community of people who have a passion for singing.
People from the Sutton Coldfield and wider region are invited to join the new choir, which will take place every Tuesday, 7-9pm.
Katie said: “I’m thrilled to be opening up our glorious choir at Sutton Town Hall. We are so looking forward to bringing our beautiful community together each week to create great music, friendship and memories with amazing opportunities.”
Choirmaster Gladstone Wilson, of Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, will provide musical direction, with all abilities welcomed and no previous singing experience necessary.
Gladstone has expertise across many fields of the music industry, having produced musical arrangements for ITV’s X-Factor, as well as supporting artists such as Bobby Womack, Tracey Chapman and Eternal.
The choir will be led by Ebony Clark (Black Voices), who was born and raised in Birmingham.
The choir will be able to record and perform alongside The D-Day Darlings, as well as lots of other opportunities throughout the year.
